Chilmark Multifamily Home for Sale

Chilmark, located in the up-island region of Martha’s Vineyard, is characterized by its serene, rural landscape and expansive rolling hills reminiscent of Ireland. This quiet town is known for its privacy, with homes set on large lots of at least three acres, often at the end of private dirt roads. The area lacks a downtown district and gastropubs, offering instead the tranquility of mighty-waved beaches like Lucy Vincent Beach, exclusive to town residents. The neighborhood is home to gray-shingled Cape Cod-style houses and vast family compounds, reflecting its reputation for high property values, though it maintains one of the lowest property tax rates on the island. Menemsha, a quaint fishing village within Chilmark, features markets selling fresh seafood and offers scenic hikes along Menemsha Hills. Residents enjoy local amenities such as the Chilmark General Store, known for its pizza and locally sourced goods, and the Yard, a performing arts venue. Chilmark School serves younger children with a unique multi-age classroom approach, while older students attend Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School, which provides a range of educational programs. The town is about a 30-minute drive from Edgartown and Oak Bluffs, with Martha’s Vineyard Airport just 15 minutes away, offering both year-round and seasonal flights.
